Three Stores and $31.00!!
This week I went to three stores. I found sale and markdown items galore at each location.
Let's see how I spent just $30.85
Store #1: Kroger
Total: $18.59
Every single item was a Markdown!
2 pounds sugar snap peas - $3.99
2 - 1 pound containers of organic baby spinach - $2.99 each
1 pound container of organic spring mix - $2.99
4 boxes of Chex cereal - $.99 each!
1 bottle of Bolthouse Farms plant based milk - $1.49
Hey readers! Have you tried this plant-based milk? I haven't. But, for $1.49 it was worth a gamble.
Store #2: HyVee
Strawberries - $5.71 for 6 pounds!
They were on sale for $1.88 for 2 pounds. This was the last day of the sale.
TIP: Don't be afraid to go to a store on the last day of a sale. Often stores overstock sale items and still have plenty on hand. If they don't, head to the Courtesy Desk and ask for a rain check. A rain check allows you to receive the sale price anytime - up to 30 days past the sale date.
Store #3: GFS
Total Cost: $6.55
The only item in the photo which was not a markdown were the light yellow-green bananas. All the rest of the items were just $5.00 in total!
Regular Price:
Bananas - $1.50
Markdowns:
Overripe bananas - $.75
Large white onion - $.25
2 Pound bag onions - $2.00
Large tomato - $.50
Bagels - $1.50
Bulk Cooking for $50 a week!
Remember, my new goal is to plan weekly bulk cooking menus, which will feed my family for $50 for the entire week.
